Home / Marketplaces: Where to Sell / eBay
eBay remains the default marketplace for shipped resale, with buyers searching for specific items, parts and collectibles. Final value fees apply on each sale, and eBay collects marketplace sales tax for you in the US. Its sold-listings data and Terapeak make pricing easier than anywhere else.

Every marketplace has a different buyer, fee structure and category strength. Furniture sells locally, sneakers go to authentication platforms, vintage clothing to Depop and Poshmark, and almost everything sells on eBay. Most full-time resellers list on 3 to 5 platforms and use a crosslister to keep inventory in sync. Fees change often, so always verify the current fee page before pricing.
